Ashore. Easy grid, simple but enjoyable meta. Chances of winning the coveted mug will be greatly diminished by Sunday night.

Ashore. Things broke open pretty easily, as many have noted. Less stressful weekend!

On shore and reporting early this week! Holiday madness is finally winding down, thank goodness. It is nice to relax with the puzzle instead of having to add it to my long list of things I have to get done by a certain deadline.

The answer to the contest is a six-letter word.

Enjoy and good luck!

Given all The Love Boat homages at the Golden Globes this week, (Tom Hanks, Kathy Bates,) I feel a stop to visit Isaac is a must.

I am afraid that I didn't get a chance to run up much of a tab this week.

Bigger tip for Isaac next week for sure.
